I put together fabric boards, worked on their website, designed some prints, made posters, and sent off various bits and bobs to Hong Kong including hundred of working drawings and fabric samples ready to be put into production.

I learnt a lot about how to run what looks like small company but is actually now worldwide. All the staff at Rachel Riley are very friendly and really close with each other, Rachel herself is very involved with the goings on and is frequently in the store and office. I met her a few times, she is lovely, approachable and her personalility is reflected in her designs and the whole brand of Rachel Riley.

One rainy day this summer I helped my friend Ella with a children's photoshoot. Some of the clothes featured are ones which I have made for past collections. My favourite is Tilly in my black velvet leggings, t-shirt and lilac blazer attempting to use an iPhone.
